6%！ The number of China Europe scheduled trains increased against the trend under the epidemic situation

The sudden outbreak of New Coronary Pneumonia has disrupted people's life order, and all walks of life are going through a big test. Under the circumstances that the routes are partially grounded and the roads are blocked, which leads to the blockage of foreign trade channels, the number of China EU scheduled trains has increased against the trend, showing a firm confidence in stabilizing foreign trade, stabilizing foreign capital and promoting the economy. According to the data released by the National Development and Reform Commission, as of the end of February, 1132 China EU trains have been operated this year, up 6% year on year. Behind the upward curve data are a series of innovative measures taken by the railway department, such as flexible transportation handover mode, effective expansion of freight sources, and strengthening the collection and distribution organization. Accurately respond to customers' demand for more "carpooling" to "special cars", and the new epidemic of pneumonia has a certain impact on personnel mobility, cargo transportation, especially cross-border transportation. In this regard, the railway department has taken various measures to continuously expand its business scope and ensure adequate supply of goods. On January 1 of this year, the China Europe Express (Hefei Yekibastuz) Masteel special train loaded with 100 TEUs of train wheels drove out of the logistics base of Hefei North Station, Hefei Freight Center, China Railway Shanghai Bureau Group Co., Ltd. This is the first customized China Europe train in 2020 issued by Anhui Province. With the deepening of economic and trade exchanges between China and the countries along the "Belt and Road", China EU trains are also moving towards "customization", and more goods are transferred from "carpooling" to "special transport". During the epidemic prevention and control period, Shanghai Bureau Group Company actively connected with platform companies, key customer enterprises and freight forwarding enterprises through telephone and network to understand their goods preparation and shipping needs. From the formulation of loading plans to the loading reinforcement status, it tracked and checked at all levels, and successively launched customized China Europe trains of different directions and categories. In Urumqi Central Assembly Station, in order to expand the source of goods, the staff of China Railway Urumqi Bureau Group Co., Ltd. strengthened contact with Bagang, COFCO Tunhe, Zhongtai Chemical and other enterprises, and prepared vehicles in advance according to the enterprise production, inventory and sales plans. On site operators have been on duty for many consecutive days to answer inquiries and help customers handle shipping procedures. "There is sufficient supply of goods for China Europe Express, and we arrange special personnel to stay at the loading point all day to ensure that customers have demand and on-site response." The staff said that the next step will continue to expand the scale of China Europe Express, and strive to run three trains a day by the end of March, and achieve the goal of running more than 1000 trains by the end of the year. The first "point-to-point" freight train for rapid distribution of return freight sources Apart from the front end, the problem of return freight source distribution of China Europe trains has also attracted much attention. Under the influence of the epidemic situation, some manufacturing, electronic and other goods suitable for road transportation and air transportation have been gradually transferred to the railway field, with a steady growth of return trains. However, due to the blockage of some roads and the fact that the fleet has not yet resumed work, containers are overstocked at the site stations and the transshipment pressure is high. "The goods arriving in Chongqing from other provinces were originally scheduled to be unloaded and transported to the destination by car, but now they are stranded at the station, affecting the normal operation of the work," said the staff of Chongqing Tuanjie Village Railway Container Center Station. To cope with this situation, Xinglongchang Station of China Railway Chengdu Bureau Group Co., Ltd. immediately docked with the return freight source information of China Europe Express and provided "point-to-point" express freight service. In the early morning of February 16, a China Europe train (Chongqing) loaded with 627.3 tons of imported milk powder started from Xinglongchang Station in Chongqing and was transported to Changsha, Hunan Province after distribution and distribution. This is the pilot innovation of the designated train adopted by Chengdu Bureau Group after the outbreak of the epidemic, which effectively solved the practical difficulties in receiving and delivering the return goods of the China Europe train. Make an appointment in advance to review documents "zero waiting time" to optimize customs clearance services.
